A Game-Changer for Payroll Professionals, Offering Real-Time Automation and Seamless Integration
Ciphr, a leading provider of HR, payroll, and benefits software, has introduced its latest innovation: a fully cloud-based, real-time payroll solution designed to transform payroll processing for private sector businesses.
Developed by payroll experts for payroll professionals, Ciphr Payroll builds on the advanced technology behind Shape Payroll, which Ciphr acquired last year. The enhanced platform features an intuitive user interface, real-time data synchronisation, and a range of automation tools that reduce manual tasks and minimise human error.
A Real-Time Payroll Solution
Ciphr Payroll is powered by a true real-time payroll engine, ensuring that employee data remains synchronised across payroll, HR, finance, and workforce management systems. Unlike traditional payroll solutions that require time-consuming batch processing, Ciphr Payroll immediately reflects any payroll-related changes on employees’ payslips.
Key benefits include:
- Seamless Integration: The API-led system enables smooth data flow between HR, payroll, and finance platforms.
- Single Sign-On (SSO): Users benefit from secure and streamlined access.
- Cloud-Based Efficiency: No downtime for upgrades or maintenance, ensuring continuous system availability.
- Fast Implementation: One of the quickest payroll systems to deploy, with parallel run testing that saves up to two months during the transition process.
Julie Lally, Managing Director of Payroll at Ciphr, highlighted the significance of this launch, stating: “This marks a significant milestone for Ciphr and payroll professionals throughout the UK. We’ve taken direct feedback from the industry and developed a system that addresses key payroll challenges. Ciphr Payroll is a game-changer, setting a new standard for efficiency, accuracy, and automation in payroll processing.”
Advanced Features for Payroll Efficiency
The software is loaded with automation tools, including backpay adjustments, rolled-up holiday pay calculations, pro-ration, average earnings and absence calculations, and auto-enrolment letter generation. These features significantly reduce administrative workload, allowing payroll teams to focus on strategic operations rather than repetitive tasks.
Built with payroll professionals in mind, Ciphr Payroll offers a seamless user experience with intuitive navigation, structured workflows, and powerful reporting tools. “Every function has been carefully designed to enhance productivity,” Lally added. “Every button makes sense, every task is optimised, and every calculation is processed in real time, giving payroll teams the tools they need to operate efficiently.”
Commitment to Innovation in Payroll Technology
Sion Lewis, CEO of Ciphr, expressed enthusiasm for the new solution, stating: “We are proud to introduce Ciphr Payroll to the market. Expanding our payroll capabilities has been a priority over the past year, and this launch represents a significant investment in our customers and their needs.”
This is the payroll solution the industry has been waiting for. It strengthens Ciphr’s reputation as a leader in people management technology and sets us apart from other HCM providers. Payroll professionals can now benefit from a more intuitive, automated, and highly efficient system that simplifies their work and enhances accuracy.
Ciphr Payroll is now available for demonstrations, allowing payroll departments to experience its full capabilities firsthand. More than 1,000 organisations, including industry leaders like Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix, Toyota Financial Services, and Crisis UK, trust Ciphr’s solutions to streamline their HR and payroll operations, reinforcing its impact on the UK’s payroll technology landscape.
